March 25, 2020 Milestone

March 25, 2020- Big 65 today at 12:15am 

Normally I don’t broadcast my Birthday but today I hit a milestone. The BIG 65. When I was 60, I successfully achieved my goal which was a hand stand. For my 65th bday’s goal, I wanted to do a head stand. I am so blessed to be healthy. 

8:00 am-  Steve made me a bacon sandwich this morning for my bday. What a nice surprise 

10:15 am- It has been a great day. Steve went spear fishing with Dietrich near the Adderly Cut.  I took that time to take the dinghy to an isolated beach called Coconut Island. I walked from one end of the island to the ocean side. I brought my machete so that I can cut more palm leaves.

I also found another beach with a lot of treasures such as buoys and sea fans and unfortunately lots of plastic which washed up.  

12:00 pm- Came back and swam before taking a hot shower. 

The men came back with no fish. They said they were lucky to even come back. They anchored the dinghy while spear fishing and all of a sudden the current started flowing so fast that they both had a hard time swimming back to the boat. Steve said waves saved him because when a wave came,  he could use them to ride them and make way. By the time they made it to the dinghy, they both were out of breath and thank their lucky stars.  Steve told me to get my camera. He was taking me somewhere as a surprise for my birthday He took me to Leafs Cay and started whistling. 

All of a sudden at least 18 red coloured iguanas came to greet us. Steve gave the lettuce and they devoured it. They live around the salt pond on the other side of the beach. Came back to the boat and went swimming of course had to wear my birth suit since it was my birthday. 

6:00 pm- Sausage, pasta with broccoli for dinner. We sat out on the bow wit our coffee and watched the sunset. So peaceful. What a great way to end my special day.
